Filmic Borders
Film scans, sprocket holes and all.
Achieve the beautiful aesthetic of film combined with the flexibility of a digital workflow. These filmic border presets push the boundaries of what's possible within Lightroom, faithfully replicating the borders, sprocket holes, light leaks, and dust reminiscent of real film scans.
Each border comes in horizontal and vertical versions, alongside black and white versions for monochromatic images. These presets are resource-intensive due to the complexity of the hand-drawn elements — be sure to follow Adobe's guidance to optimise Lightroom's performance.

Filmic 35mm 3- mimics the look of shooting 35mm film full-width. Featuring sprocket holes punched through the image, along with light leaks and dust.
Filmic 120 - replicates the black borders and edge markings commonly seen on medium-format film, along with light leaks and a subtle layer of dust.
Filmic 120 (no light leak)- identical to Filmic 120 but with the light leak removed for a more clean aesthetic.
Filmic Super 8 - gives the distinct look of a single frame of Super 8 film, featuring a rounded-corner border with rough edges, light leak and a large sprocket hole.
Filmic Super 8 (no sprocket) - identical to filmic Super 8 but without the sprocket hole, for a cleaner look
